I “love” how every website I find about LASIK complications says something like, “20-40% of people experience dry eyes, which usually peaks around 3 months and disappears within 6-12 months, except for a small number of people who have it forever.”

How small is that number‽

How about a chart of fraction of people with X complication after Y period of time? How are millions of people getting this surgery without being able to make a realistic assessment of their risks?
